Megaupload : the leading online storage and file delivery service
What do you do when you have a large file that you want to email to someone, but it would just take too long to upload onto an email, or it’s just too big for the system to cope with?
When this happened to me, I looked around for alternative methods, and the best one that I found was Megaupload.
There are basically 5 simple steps:
1) Select the file that you want to upload
2) Enter the recipient’s email address
3) Enter your email address – OPTIONAL (for the purpose of being notified when the file is sent)
4) Enter a description of the file – OPTIONAL
5) Tick a box agreeing to the terms and conditions
This is all on the main page, it’s fast and easy to find, you don’t have to navigate around the site at all, which is a big plus point.
After this, the file will begin uploading. The page will provide you information on how fast it is uploading as well as how much time is remaining. Also, if you use tabbed browsing, you can browse on other tags and on the megaupload tag, instead of saying Megaupload, it will state the percentage of completion of the upload of your file.
I’ve used this site three times now and have found them to be fast and reliable. They also have additional services that require you to pay, and if I was ever to need something like that, I wouldn’t hesitate in using Megaupload.
